Description

Method for synthesizing cis/trans-prenyl-3-methyl butadiene ether by using methyl butynol and isopentenol
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis, relates to synthesis of a citral intermediate, and particularly relates to a method for synthesizing cis/trans-prenyl-3-methyl butadiene ether by using methyl butynol and isopentenol.
Background
Citral (Citral), i.e. "3, 7-dimethyl-2, 6-octadienal", of formula C10H16O is an unsaturated chain aldehyde monoterpene containing two double bonds. It usually contains two 2-double bond cis-trans isomers, a mixture of neral and geranial. Citral is an important natural flavoring agent and additive widely used in beverages, foods and cosmetics commonly found in life due to its strong lemon aroma and flavor, and is widely known and favored for its unique, acceptable and lemon-like pleasant odor. Citral is the main component of citrus fruit peel oil. It is mainly present in orange peels. Essential oils containing citral have been shown to have antibacterial, antifungal and antiparasitic properties, making citral a natural preservative (pharm. res. 2015,32, 2548.). It has been proposed to investigate the possible carcinogenic effect of citral, since it has a common carcinogenic effect. In this study, male and female rats and male mice received microencapsulated pure citral (500-4000ppm) in their diet for 14 weeks or 2 years. No data could be established by the investigator to demonstrate the oncogenic activity of citral in rats and mice. With the increasing use amount of citral, citral obtained from natural resources cannot meet the demand of industrial development, and the synthesis method thereof has been receiving attention.
At present, the method for obtaining citral can be divided into two methods, namely separation and extraction from plant essential oil and chemical synthesis preparation. The extraction from the plant essential oil litsea cubeba oil has the defects of low yield, limited resources, high production cost and the like, and is not suitable for large-scale production; the chemical synthesis method mainly comprises an enol and olefine aldehyde condensation rearrangement synthesis method. Wherein, the method for synthesizing citral by BASF company is to condense isobutene and formaldehyde to obtain a 3-methyl-3-buten-1-ol intermediate, the intermediate can be isomerized into isopentenol and can be oxidized into 3-methyl-3-butenal, and then, the two products are condensed and rearranged by a key intermediate cis/trans-prenyl-3-methylbutadienol ether to obtain citral; 2) the citral synthesis method by Rhone-Poulenc of Ronalukang France directly uses isopentenyl aldehyde and isopentenyl alcohol to obtain citral through rearrangement of cis/trans-prenyl-3-methyl butadiene ether as key intermediate. Thus, cis/trans-prenyl-3-methyl-butadiene ether is an important intermediate for synthesizing citral. However, the current process has the disadvantage of high raw material prices, which significantly compromises the cost advantage of the process.
